The humble beginnings of the Malaysian Society of Allergy and Immunology can be traced back to a small but dedicated group of doctors and healthcare personnel. They gathered at the Royal Lake Club on several occasions in the 1996 to formulate a plan.

The group shared the view that whilst Malaysia had undergone rapid and remarkable economic development and accordingly an advancing medical field, we remained lacking in a conjoint inter-disciplinary fraternity dealing with Allergy and Immunology.

Under the threat of being overwhelmed by Covid-19 infection worldwide, a pandemic declared by WHO and directives from MOH, the executive committee of MSAI is compelled to postpone the 20th Malaysian Congress and Exhibition on Allergy & Immunology 2020 scheduled for March 27-29, 2020 at the Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur, indefinitely.
